LebowIn-Place Preservative Treatments for Covered Bridges

Most covered bridges are made of wood and can be vulnerable to damage from fungi and insect attack. A recent paper from FPL forest products technologist Stan Lebow and Oregon State University professor Jeff Morrell describes treatment options that help prevent or slow down biodegradation...

From left to right are examples of different treated wood: micronized copper quaternary (MCQ), didecyldimethylammonium carbonate (DDAC), and alkaline copper quaternary (ACQ-D). Cupric ions from the wood preservative causes the dark coloration of the wood. Excess copper has deposited on the MCQ (green splotches) and the ACQ (along the end grain).Documenting the Durability and Service Life of Pressure-treated Wood

Preservative treatments can greatly extend the useful life of wood products. Estimates of expected service life are commonly used to compare long-term life-cycle costs for a variety of building materials. Quantifying the expected increase in service-life for treated wood is a challenge few have unde...

Last week we introduced the subject of corrosion in the fasteners used in wood construction. Homeowners have an enormous choice of lumber to use in their projects. We all know the feeling of being in the big box store and looking at the seemingly endless choices of lumber stacked in huge piles. And...
